^{Key: :[Abm] (w: Les Reed, Barry Mason, Sylvan Whittingham)}

VERSE 1:
[Abm] I saw the light on the night that I passed by her [Eb] window [Eb7]
[Abm] I saw the flickering shadows of love on her [Eb] blind [Eb7]
[Ab] She [Ab7] was my [Dbm] woman,
[Abm] As she deceived me I [Eb] watched, and went out of my [Abm] mind [Gb7]

CHORUS 1:
[B] My, my, my, [Gb] Delilah; Why, why, [Gb7] why, [B] Delilah
I could [B7] see, that [E] girl was no good for [Dbm] me,
[B] But I was lost like a [Gb] slave that no one could [B] free [Eb open]

VERSE 2:
[Abm] At break of day when that man drove away I was [Eb] waiting [Eb7]
[Abm] I crossed the street to her house and she opened the [Eb] door [Eb7]
[Ab] She [Ab7] stood there [Dbm] laughing
[Abm] I felt the knife in my [Eb open] hand, and she laughed no [Abm] more [Gb7]

CHORUS 2:
[B] My, my, my, [Gb] Delilah; Why, why, [Gb7] why, [B] Delilah
So [B7] before, they [E] came to break down the [Dbm] door,
[B] Forgive me, Delilah, I [Gb] just couldn't take any [B] more [Eb]

INSTRUMENTAL: [Abm] [Eb] [Abm] [Eb]

[Ab] She [Ab7] stood there [Dbm] laughing

OUTRO:
[Abm] Forgive me, Delilah, I [Eb] just couldn't take any [Abm] more [Dbm] [Abm]
